Chapter Seventy-Three: The City of Wellonke

After a few hours of sleep, the companions set out for Wiconk, 20 kilometres to the south. By the time we reach the outskirts of the city, the sun is about to set, and although the actual time is around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, in the far north, the winter days are shorter, and they come and go quickly. Looking at the dark buildings in front of her, Dani was a little nervous: "It's getting dark, can't you get in?" ”

"The night battle is not good for us. I'll wait until tomorrow. Leonard offered his opinion.

"What are you still rubbing at the door? Before the sky is completely dark, you can bring as much as you can. Joy Kado.

Sophia said: "Cassius, you proposed to come here to find supplies, now or wait for tomorrow, you say." ”

"This ......" Cassius had just spoken, when he suddenly heard his big belly "grunt".

"Looks like your beer belly has been tapped by you. Joyka teased him.

The others couldn't help but laugh too. But at this time, the husky snow dog suddenly became irritable, their bodies were low, their paws stretched forward, their ears swept back, their lips pulled up, their sharp teeth were exposed, and they barked strangely. Dani was startled, "What's wrong with the dogs?"

"Dogs can foresee dangers that we humans can't perceive. Something unusual must have happened ahead. Cassius said.

The sleds can no longer be used. After discussion, the friends left the dogs in the snowfield, guarded by Ukrainians, and the others walked to Wellonk. Compared to Polfishagrad, Wiconque is small, neither a strategic location nor a transportation point, and its walls are relatively low. When the partners approached the city gate less than 100 meters, Joyka suddenly stopped and said, "Did you hear that?"

"Hear what?" Ray asked.

"It's like a human scream. As soon as Joyka finished speaking, a terrible scream came from behind the city wall. Then something was thrown up, flew over the city walls and fell in front of the companions.

Dani and Sophia felt sick to their stomachs. What was thrown was the upper body of a man. He looked to be in his 20s, his face was full of horror, all the parts below his waist were missing, his internal organs were flowing out of his intestines, and the snow around him was stained red. "Dead. Joyka probed the man's snort, "I think I just died, and I still have my temperature." ”

"Is he the one who just screamed?" Ray asked, "Are there any other living people in the city?"

Cassius looked at the city: "I don't know. But it's not just supplies that await us. ”

Everyone cautiously entered the city through the city gates. Originally, the friends thought that they would encounter a group of walking corpses and a big battle, but after walking for a few minutes, they did not encounter a single walking corpse. This unexpected calm may indicate that there is a greater danger waiting for them. The house seemed to have been ransacked, all the useful supplies had been scooped away, and the companions had to continue to move deeper into the city. Suddenly, there was a strange sound ahead. Joyka told everyone to stop, and then ran off to investigate alone. Two minutes later, he returned unscathed.

"What's the situation?" asked Cassius.

"What do you say? ”

Led by Joyka, everyone came to a market for the camp. The scene in front of them gave everyone a big headache: in the chaotic market, an extremely large mammoth squatted on the ground, gnawing on a human corpse that was only half left, a goblin was stuck in the tusks on the left, and around the mammoth lay 4 or 5 goblin corpses, all of them were disemboweled, and the death was terrifying, and next to the goblin corpse, there were several rucksacks scattered, one of which was torn open, revealing the dry food inside.

"Did that monster do it?" said Dani, gesturing at the behemoth that was eating with his head down.

"Strange. Mammoths, though domesticated by magicians as war animals, are in fact tame and vegetarian, so how could they do such a horrific thing?" said Cassius.

At this point, the mammoth seemed to hear the sound and looked up. "Get out of the way. At Joika's reminder, the buddies ducked into the nearest building as fast as they could. The mammoth didn't notice anyone and continued to enjoy its deliciousness.

"I see, I didn't expect such a huge mammoth to turn into a walking corpse. Cassius saw that all the hair on the mammoth's head had fallen off, revealing its scaly skin, and he confirmed what had happened to the beast.

"It seems that someone wanted to go to the city to find food, but unfortunately this monster found it. Sophia pointed to the rucksacks and dry food scattered all over the place, "Sure enough, there are other survivors nearby?"

"Leave that alone, find a way to scoop up all those supplies. Leonard said.

"Slaughter the elephant. I'll take the lead!" Ray gently lifted his spear.

"Calm down, Ray. Not all problems can be solved by force. Mammoths are not easy to deal with, and it is not known if there are other potential dangers. Cassius said.

"Then how do you get this monster out of the way, do you play the dog flute?" Ray asked rhetorically.

"Your brother is right, it's not a good choice to fight hard. Joyka said, "While this monster is eating, if we're quick enough, we should be able to > it before it finds out."

Gluttony!?p>

"I'll go. Ray volunteered.

"Let's go together. Others stayed put to help. Joy Kado.

"Just the two of you?" said Sophia, worried.

"Too many people are not good. ”

Sophia chanted the incantation softly, and a gentle white light flashed, and Joika and Ray had been blessed with "Sensitive Blessings". Sophia said, "That's all I can do, and the rest is up to you." ”

By this time, the beast had eaten half of the human corpse, and it moved to the side of a goblin corpse on the ground, and began to feast again. Joyka and Ray are like two civets, moving quickly and quietly towards the market. They reached the corner of the beast's field of vision, picked up a rucksack from the ground, and then quickly jumped in the direction of the two knapsacks they saw. But at this moment, a piece of glass suddenly fell from the sky and fell beside Lei, making a loud breaking sound, and the giant beast raised its head to look at it, just opposite Lei's eyes. "Holy!" Ray cursed.

Spotting the flesh alive, the walking corpse mammoth abandoned the goblin corpse and rushed towards the thunder! It was huge, and its four giant hooves slammed into the ground with a deafening loud noise, accompanied by a small earthquake. Originally, with Ray's skills, he could have dodged this collision, but the small earthquake made the gravel on the ground jump wildly, his feet slipped, his center of gravity was unstable, and he missed the best opportunity to dodge. The giant beast pushed Thunder and slammed him and his gun into a building, and with a "boom", the building could not withstand such a powerful impact, and the whole building collapsed, burying Thunder and half of the body of the walking corpse mammoth in the rubble.

"Thunder!" the friends jumped out of their hiding place together and rushed towards the ruins of the building!

But they had barely run half of the way, and there was a roar of "woo" from the ruins, and the giant beast shook its body frantically, and raised its head from the ruins, half of the blood pact dragon spear had already stabbed into the head of the giant beast, and Lei grabbed the other half of the spear and was "fished" by the walking corpse mammoth.

Joyka shot an arrow, but it was blocked by the stiff, long elephant fur, and could not hurt the beast at all. "Bastard!" Joeyka threw down her longbow, raised her sword, and stabbed Dani left and right into the behemoth's two front legs, Cassius fired ice vertebrae at it, but the walking corpse felt no pain, and the attacks of her companions were ineffective. It shook its head vigorously, trying to shake the thunder off its head. Thunder is like a leaf in the wind, swaying left and right, but the gun in his hand is held tightly, and it can never be thrown away by the giant beast.

At this important juncture of the fierce battle, more than a dozen figures suddenly sprang out of the surrounding houses, and fled quickly in the direction of the south of the city. Three of these figures were humans, and the others were all goblins in Prisoner Handcuffs and carrying backpacks.

The divine light that specializes in the undead can temporarily incapacitate the walking corpse of the worm, but Sophia doesn't know if it can be effective against this behemoth, so she didn't use it at first to avoid startling the snake, but now it's dangerous, and she can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor. "Accept the sanction of the light!" finished chanting the incantation, and Sophia clenched the silver cross with both hands and held it flat in front of her chest.

The cross emitted an extremely dazzling holy light, radiating in all directions, illuminating the surroundings that had been darkened by the setting of the sun, and the holy light gradually converged into a pillar of light, shooting towards the head of the walking corpse mammoth. In order to ensure that there is a strong enough power of light, Sophia combines 10 holy rays into one. The beast was in great pain under the light of the holy light, scurrying around, raising its hooves and kicking Joika and Dany away, and even Ray, who had been holding his "post" steadily, was finally thrown out, and the three of them hit the broken bricks and tiles heavily, spitting blood from their mouths, and all of them were seriously injured.

In fact, it was not the mammoth that felt the pain, but the worm in its head, because it could not stand Sophia's divine power, a large number of bugs crawled out of the mouth, nose, ears and eyes of the giant beast, and then the giant beast collapsed to the left, and its huge body fell to the ground.

Sophia hurriedly climbed to the roof of a bungalow and emitted three healing lights to heal the injured Ray, Joyka, and Dani at the same time. However, Ray noticed that the mammoth's corpse twitched, and he immediately warned, "Be careful!

Soon Ray's words were confirmed, and the walking corpse mammoth quickly stood up as if it had never been injured. Although some of the bugs were driven away, a large number of bugs remained in the head and possessed the elephant corpse. It seemed to have discovered the culprit of its own pain, lifted its trunk like a giant tree, and slammed it down on Sophia! In such a short period of time, Sophia had no time to exert the holy light that was 10 times more powerful just now...... Leonard, who had been guarding her all the time, knocked Sophia away, then spun around and slashed upwards with a sword, slicing a small portion of the tip of the trunk. The sword was originally Sakharov's weapon, and before leaving the prison shelter, Shuvashenki asked Sakharov to lend the sword to Leonard to fill the knight's empty scabbard. With this handy weapon, Leonard regained his former bravery. Upon attack, the Walking Dead Mammoth turns its target towards Leonard, smashing him with a thick, heavy trunk. Leonard, in order to avoid the attack on Sophia behind him, did not dodge, but raised his sword and carried it hard. "I'm here to stop you, Your Highness Princess, finish your job quickly!"

Sophia nodded, continuing to release the healing light.

After the failed magic attack, Cassius was not idle, he used this time to mobilize the water elementals around him and gather under the mammoth. Cassius slammed the Endurance Grip to the ground and snapped his fingers. The ground beneath the feet of the walking corpse mammoth, the ice tips grew like bamboo shoots, and covered the limbs of the giant beast at an astonishing speed, and in just 10 seconds, the limbs of the giant beast were completely frozen. "Now!" shouted Cassius.

Recovered from their injuries, Joeyka and Dany immediately picked up their longsword and rushed at the beast left and right, plunging it into both of its eyes. The sightless beast's head shook wildly, and the attack on Leonard stopped. In order to avoid being thrown away again, Dani and Joyka immediately jumped away without even a weapon. As soon as the two left, a yellow figure had already pounced, and Thunder grabbed the long hair on the mammoth's body, climbed on top of the giant beast's head, grabbed the spear with both hands, released the "power of the dragon", and pressed the blood pact dragon spear down hard. The spear plunged into the beast's head and pierced through its jaw, sticking straight into the ground. Cassius lifted the "Grip of Endurance" upward, and an icicle about the thickness of a spear condensed above the behemoth's head, and then slipped through the blood hole pierced by thunder, Cassius quickly snapped his fingers, and the icicle that entered the behemoth's head immediately melted, and then quickly vaporized. The heat expands and the cold shrinks, causing the volume of the water element to suddenly increase several times in the head of the invading giant beast. Sophia wasted no time in shooting two rays of holy light into the two long swords inserted in the eyes of the giant beast, using the guò long sword as a medium to penetrate the magic of light into the giant beast's head......

Under multiple attacks, the mighty walking corpse mammoth was finally dragged across, falling to the ground and never getting up again. Thousands of bugs escaped from its head, all of which were magically cleared by Cassius.

"What kind of monster is this? Dani grumbled as she pulled her weapon from the elephant's corpse.

"Among the land-walking beasts, the Mammoth is second only to Beamon in terms of combat power. In the battle of the Valley of Sin 12 years ago, the Snowy Federation relied on 6 mammoth war elephants to push back tens of thousands of crusaders for dozens of kilometers. We met a mammoth that had turned into a walking corpse, and our luck was too bad. Cassius had palpitations.

"Then again. "Did you just see a few people and goblins pop up?" ”

"Yes!" Sophia pointed to the south, "as if she had run that way." ”

"I thought I was dazzled, but you saw it too. "Lei Dao.

"Sure enough, why a piece of glass fell for no reason, it seems that something is wrong. Joyka said.

"These people are hiding nearby, deliberately causing us to fight this monster, and then take the opportunity to escape. Leonard said.

Dani gave a disdainful look, "Shameless! Who the hell are they?"

"I don't know. "But I have a hunch that I should see them soon." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden loud noise in the direction of the south of the city, mixed with several screams of terror. In the afterglow that had not yet completely disappeared, the companions saw that the people and goblins who had just fled south were fleeing back the same way, and a cloud of dust was raised behind them...... Hell, a second walking corpse mammoth is heading this way!

"Wouldn't it?" the partners felt their scalps tingle at the same time.
